I broke down today to wash the panels; I am not the original owner, so I can't swear they didn't have a problem before I got them. But for me, for the past 5 years they have been champs. One panel started to be less responsive about 3 months ago and it has taken me a while to diagnose the...

solution turns out it was the IC from pre->amp

Been a long time since I visited here, but I know you can will help out of you can! One of my SL-3s hums. I have eliminated the monoblock as the problem, the preamp as the problem, the snaking of the power cord to the unit as the problem, the speaker cable as the problem, even the tubes as the...

Thanks! It's tube amp; i shulda said Fellow Logan-ears, Thanks for the info about the 8ohm v 4ohm issues. I can have the mfgr. reconfigure the amp o 4 ohms, just want to make sure it's going to help the sound generally. As fate would have it, I wasn't able to turn on the speakers today, so I...

Q1: What is the effect of having 8 ohm amps driving 4 ohm ML speakers? Corollary, is there a benefit to having amps reconfigured for 4 ohms? Q2: When bi-wiring the SL3s, I seem to not need the power cord whereas not bi-wired, power cord is essential. Why? Is there a benefit to using the power...

thanks for the tip I will give ML a call; maybe they will send me the clips. great suggestion! Doug White Stone, VA

Roberto, Thanks for reassuring me that this isn't a huge problem. I'll get to it asap! I love this group! :-) Doug

I listen more than I look, so as dumb as this sounds, I have noticed for about a month that the left side of my system sound is "off." Finally I noticed that the entire panel enclosing the mylar has dropped about 1-1 1/2 inches. What can I do to resecure it at the proper height? Can I do it or...

Did your Zeppelin CDs improve after changing the Absolute Polarity? Anyone interested in working to create some kind of master list of records where the polarity is reversed?

Yah, I suspect that about 40-50% of my recordings are affected by the Absolute Polarity issue. I understand that the DG recordings mostly need to be switched, but haven't tried. And yes, when you find one which is muffled and switch it the results are not subtle. Led Zepplelin II was pretty much...

Has anyone out there played with your vinyl by switching the red and black outputs from your amp to change the Absolute Polarity? It's quite a hassle to go back and forth, but some records I thought were very poorly recorded turn out to be diamonds in the rough if you reverse the Absolute...

Welcome to the Club! My wife also agrees that the MLs improve our sound, but it would be hard to get her to agree to upgrade the components. Keep us posted!

Everyone, Thanks so much for the tips! I really suspect that the SL3s will "sing" over tubes, whereas I feel that they "play" over the SS equipment I have. Sorry to have been away for a bit, our neighborhood was lightening struck last week and were out of power/internet for a time. But, rest...

Hi! New here and it's great to read about everyone's experience with the MLs. I have virtually a new-to-me, but MINT pair of SL3s. I would like to hear from folks whether a tube preamp makes a lot of difference in the music? I have a Musical Fidelity A308 integrated amp. I think I am looking for...
